Seismology and Wave Propagation

Earthquakes are disasters caused by seismic waves which are formed due to a sudden release of energy from the Earth’s lithosphere. This can develop into disturbances of massive magnitude resulting in substantial damage to life and property. Seismology is the study of earthquakes. It encompasses the study of diverse aspects related to earthquakes including seismicity analysis, frequency, wave nature, rupture dynamics, wave propagation, etc. It also involves evaluating earthquake aftershocks ...
